• Remove 1 from the decimal odd and convert it to a fraction.
  1.75 – 1 = 0.75 = 75/100

  75/100 = 3/4

3/4 is the Fraction odds equivalent of 1.75 Decimal odds.

Decimal to American conversion:

There are two methods, one for decimal odds more than 2.00 and one for decimal odds less than 2.00.

To convert a decimal odd of 2.00 or higher, let’s use 3.35 as an example:

• The moneyline equals the decimal odds minus 1 times 100.
  (3.35 – 1) x 100 = +235

+235 is the American odds equivalent of 3.35 Decimal odds.

To convert a decimal odd of less than 2.00, let’s use 1.9091 as an example:

Convert American Odds To Fractional Distillation

• The moneyline equals -100 divided by the decimal odds minus 1.
  (-100) / (1.9091 – 1) = -109.99 = -110
• Then round the answer off into the closest round number.
  109.99 = -110

-110 is the American odds equivalent of 1.9091 Decimal odds.

Fractional to American conversion:

There are two methods, one for fractional odds more than 1/1 and one for fractional odds less than 1/1.

To convert a fractional odd of 1/1 or higher, let’s use 7/4 as an example:

• Convert the fraction to decimals by multiplying it by 100.
  7/4 * 100 = 1.40
• Then multiply that number by 100 again.
  1.40 * 100 = +140

+140 is the American odds equivalent of 7/4 Fractional odds.

To convert a fractional odd of 1/1 or lower, let’s use 1/10 as an example:

• Convert the fraction to decimals by multiplying it by 100.
  1/10 * 100 = 0.1
• Divide -100 by that answer.
  -100/0.1 = -1000

-1000 is the American odds equivalent of 1/10 Fractional odds.

Fractional to Decimal conversion:

Let’s use a 3/4 fractional odd as an example:

• Convert the fraction to a decimal by multiplying it by 100.
  3/4 x 100 = 0.75

  0.75 + 1 = 1.75

1.75 is the Decimal odds equivalent of 3/4 Fractional odds.
